Paneer Tikka
I am a foodie person. I should say I have inherited it from my family. Here comes one of my favorite veggie recipe which would require a grill.
Ingredients
• 2 cups of cottage cheese, cut into medium size square pieces.
• 1½ cups Bell pepper pieces (green or red).
• 2 cups Onion pieces.
• 2 cups small tomatoes.
• 1½ cup Cauliflower (optional).
• 2 cups plain yogurt.
• 1 table spoon hot sauce.
• Metal or Wooden skewers.
• Salt.
• Red chili powder or red pepper flakes.
• Butter.
1. Mix all vegetables and yogurt in a bowl.
2. Add salt, hot sauce and red chili powder (or pepper flakes) as per the taste. If you can handle spicy and hot add both else you can skip red chili powder.
3. Mix everything well and marinate it for an hour.
4. Light the fire and preheat grill.
5. Assemble the kabobs by threading onto the skewers and alternating. Remember the sequence, a piece of bell pepper, onion, piece of cottage cheese, tomato, cauliflower piece and again start with green bell pepper. The green, red and white color combination looks presentable and yummy!
6. On the grill, turn frequently with tongs over direct heat. Grill the tikkas so they are done thoroughly, the cheese pieces are golden brown, and the tomatoes are just starting to char.
Serving:
Take out the vegetables and cheese pieces from the barbeque skewers.
Add 5-6 drops of lemon juice and salt for taste. Those who like butter can apply some on tikkas with a pastry brush. Serve hot as a side dish along with some roasted corns and burger. A perfect light meal when you go out for camping!
